Report Table View Issue

Hi ,

In contination to this thread
https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Profit-and-Loss-Reports/td-p/887396/page/2

 

i have dragged Level columns from Dimension table (level 5 and Level 6)
I need only one row (total row) for Profit before depreciation..is there any way to achieve it in table view?

 

In matrix view -- i did and it is working properly (used +/- icon and hidded extra rows) but since download to excel does
not keep the same format, hence we are making it in table view

 

 So can u pls suggest if it is possible? to have only one total row for Profit before depreciation and Profit after
depreciation in table view


Enhanced Compute Engine Dataflow Icons

Is anybody able to explain why the icons for entities within the dataflow are different to one another once the enhanced compute engine is turned on? There appears to be no pattern to why some are showing as tables and others views.

Why do we have to add the members to the role when we are using Username/Userprinciplename as RLS?

Hello Everyone!

I have enabled a hirerarchical RLS on the desktop and Published it to the Service.

Role is based on the userprinciplename() so ideally when someone form the org logs in and if the UPN matches the record in the Dataset it should show only their records. 

But why do I have to again add all the members to the RLS roles inside the Power BI Service? Doesnt that defate the purpose of Dynamic RLS? If i need the report to be accessed by 10K + users and enable the RLS based on the UserPrincipleName() shouldn't it work based on the UserPrincipleName filter?

Could someone please let me know if I'm doing anything wrong or is there a workaround of skipping the step of adding members to the UPN ROLE?

Flow Map Custom visual NOT supporting Export

Hello,

 

I have a report using Flow Map Custom visual and when I try to export the report in pdf or power point all visual works except Flow Map. Instead of the map there's a massage saying that it does not support export.

 

Can this be fixed? Or is there another visual that has similar functionalities as the Flow Map and support export?

 

Thank you very much,

Alice

Best Architecture for Power BI with security restrictions

Hello,

 

I am trying to work out the architecture for my Power BI reports and how best to have them presented to the client.

 

At present, I am working with a client in the UK that has NHS ICO security regulations and therefore I am not confident that only pushing to the Power BI service and implementing RLS is sufficient. At present, the data is coming from a case management system through a VPN and is going onto the client's computers. This level of security needs to stay the same.

 

My team and I have been considering embedding into SharePoint, but I believe this still requires the reports being put into the Power BI Service workspace and this again may not meet ICO security standards. At this point I am completely clueless as to the security standards of Power BI Service and am unsure whether it will meet the applicable data protection standards.

 

Please can anyone advise on the best practice and most appropriate architecture for our needs, from developing in Power BI Desktop to end?

Unable to connect to the data source undefined.

Hi all, I have successfully installed gateway on Windows server 2012 R2 and the gateway is online but when I configure the datasource I get the below error: I am not sure what exactly the problem is? How should I add data source for mysql ODBC connection. I am able to connect to the datasource from Power BI desktop.

 

Underlying error code: -2147467259 Underlying error message: MySQL: We were unable to find a database provider with invariant name 'MySql.Data.MySqlClient'.

Wanted to ask if there were any security updates for certificates recently or something else from Power Bi side? Because we did not make any changes from ours. 
 
Much upreciated. 

PowerBI version control best practices, workspace permissions and branches of master.

Hi all,

 

I have developped a master finance PowerBI report for my company where we can view all the finances for each department's budget/actual expenses. Now working with the finance team we want to roll them out to each team filtered to each department (while the master copy will be accessed only by the finance department and will have a view of all departments). To do this I plan on just setting hard filters. However there are a number of best practice and maintenance questions that arise out of this piece of work that I would like to know about. I think there are 3 main points covered by this that I have questions about.

 

1.Dataset maintenance.– Proposed solution is  Dataflow

  • To make sure all the data is consolidated between separate reports I don't want to recreate datasets between reports. Instead I plan to make a centralised Dataflow which I will connect all the reports to. Question: Is this the best practice here?

 

 

2. Report maintenance - I was planning to make each filtered report a separate report for each deparment, however this creates lots of version control/extra maintenance and much more work (there are 10 departments). 

  • Question. How do you have the same reports with different filters on them showing different subsets of information or for different departments and minimise the version control between them. So, if 1 graph needs to be changed (how can you do it so that you only do it once as opposed to ten times). Is there a better practice here for PBI?
  • Question: Is there a way to make it the same report but different tabs for different teams? Or else branch off a tab off a master report and it will update when the master updates?

 

3. Dataset and Report permissions - we only want departments to have access to their own reports and data.

  • Question: Do we need to make a workspace for each team? Is access to reports at the workspace permissions level. Or can you make it at the report level or even a tab level?
  • Question: Can you connect to a dataflow from a different workspace?

shared dataset published as an App - when creating reports in My Workspace I cannot find the app

Good morning all,

 

I have a simple question for a complicated case.

 

I have created a workspace for with only datasets called "Shared Datasets" the point of this workspace is to only hold the datasets for our multiple workspaces so they all can reference to the same datasets. The workspace access is set to Viewer only.   I have also publish this workspace as an app and set its setting to allow users to connect to the app underlying datasets using the build permission as well as share the app and the underlying datasets using the share permission.

 

I would like create new reports using this "Shared Datasets" app but I cannot see it in my App section.  Am I missing some settings or a step?

 

Thank you.


Cross Report Drill Through automatically adding unwanted filters to all pages of target report

I have two reports on my workspace and set up a cross report drill through from the source report, to a specific page on the Target report. Only one page on the target report has the drill through field when I publish the report from Desktop. When I go to my source report in service and perform the cross report drill through it works and takes me to the page I want, but it also adds that field to ALL of the pages in that report and filters them automatically. When I try to remove them by editing in service they just show up again when I save and go back to reading view. The only thing that works is clicking "reset to default". The problem is when I go back to my source report and do another drill through it happens all over again. 

 

This is the report in Desktop when I publish it.

This is the same page after I perform a cross report drill through to a different page in this report.

The Email Subscription do not work in my Dataset because of my Row-Level Security

I need to send a daily mail to the users of my Report. I use to send the Email subscription. 

My Dataset has Row-Level Security. It means security roles. And before I was able to subscribe users. But since a weeks ago this is not more available. 

 

The message from PowerBi is:  

You cannot subscribe others because this artifact has row-level security or the dataset is using a Live Connection to Analysis Services

 

Could anyone help me?

User stuck on loading screen

Hello,

 

One of our users has informed us that they cannot see the report which they clicked on, and all they see is a loading screen. 

 

We have verified that they have security access to the report as well as row level security. There's no issue seeing the reports when I try to view as their account.

 

They have tested this on both chrome and IE, with the same result. What could be causing this issue? No other user has reported this behavior before.
